5 friggin stars, most definitely. It's kind of expensive, so be ready to shell out some dollars. But the portions are huge. I got a breakfast burrito yesterday, with sausage. I ate half and saved the other half for later, which I don't normally do as my appetite can be pretty big. That sucker was huge. I didn't get any salsa with it; I usually do but, meh, skipped it...no big deal. Next time. I'm a green salsa kind of guy 😁
The other thing is that I used to go to other burrito places that were trolley accessible but more in downtown. One specifically isn't open very late, while Azteca more or less has normal hours. So, as they say, 85-90% of success is showing up. This is another big reason why Azteca gets my vote. They'll be seeing a lot more of me when I'm in downtown.

Out N About
I'm kind of bummed to even write this review and post this picture I should have left the tacos put together but I took them apart and as you can see that lettuce is old the cheese is nacho cheese not actual cheese and the fish is burnt their quality has gone way downhill..I usually get get take out ..this isn't the first time I have gotten home , to see the food look awful n not what I ordered... I should probably take it back but you guys know as well as I do then I'm not going to get my money back and it's going to be an argument and piss me off and I'm still going to walk away with nothing...I have watched the male cashier that works in the evening take advantage of people's money .... This place used to be really good and after seeing that guy take advantage of someone who's disadvantaged in math and keep the money ...super bummed....

Decent taco shop. Location is a sketch for sure but food is alright. Carne asada burritos pretty good. Carne asada fries is alright. Overall solid spot.

I recently had their Steak breakfast burrito with added beans. Delicious!
I recommend this place. Not to mention there is a sweetheart of a woman working the front which is always a plus.

These tacos never fail to put me in a good mood. I’ve had them since I moved to Downtown, San Diego in 2022. I only come here when I am craving tacos and I only recommend Azteca! You could never go wrong whether it’s a taco, torta, enchilada, try it all!!! It’s worth it!

Cant enjoy the food with the potent and overpowering smell of mariguana from all the transients smoking it outside. Just go somewhere else.
Carne asada is fantastic! Get the burrito with guacamole and pico! Great food and customer service.

Has become our go to taco spot in East Village. The carne asada tacos are always so good and filling. We always get a side of rice and beans with some chiles toreados, some great tasting horchata, and we’re set!! Norma and her staff are always so friendly too!
